Mitigation crews rappel down the rock outcropping above Dillon Dam Road on Wednesday, April 3, 2024. Mitigation work includes testing rocks to gauge stability, intentionally causing rocks that are unstable to fall to ensure there are no immediate slides when the road eventually reopens.

The closure is set to take place starting Monday, Oct. 13, at 6:30 a.m. and last until Thursday, Oct. 16, at 7 p.m.
